Underwriters have been given an option to buy up to 6.7 million additional shares to cover over-allotment. If the over-allotment option is exercised in full, Genworth Financial would have a 56% ownership interest in Genworth MI Canada Inc.
The IPO will generate net proceeds to Genworth Financial of approximately US$635-730 million, depending on whether the over-allotment option granted by Genworth to the underwriters is exercised, and to what extent. In addition, as a result of the IPO, Genworth MI Canada will retire all outstanding debt and further enhance its well-capitalized financial position.
The closing is scheduled for July 7, subject to customary closing conditions, after which the shares of Genworth MI Canada will begin trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "MIC".
